Polyamide 12 Pickling Equipment for 3D Printed Parts

Abstract

In this review article, we would like to describe the development and production of equipment called MorPa, designed for pickling of components extruded from Polyamide 12 material using multi jet fusion technology. The goal of this project is to create an affordable and reliable device that will change color and physical properties of the components. In the following article, we describe the hardware part of the device, the software part and compare the printed parts before and after pickling. The article also includes a description of the control of the device based on the Arduino microcomputer with the used peripherals.
